Guy with Machete Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Partick ThistleOK, I guess it could be identified as a thistle. But no, not really. More like a hellish nightmare that's been raised from the depths of hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 The Reds lead the majors in mascots every year. I guess a family of baseball heads fits in with the sport so that's okay, but Gapper (named for the gap in the grandstands where he lives) is the most pointless mascot in sports. I guess the team wanted something more huggable for the kids? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnysama Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 In the CFL, the Saskatchewan Roughriders mascot, Gainer the Gopher, has only a small connection to the team name. The same can be said of the Edmonton Eskimos' Punter (but not his brother, Nanook, which is an Eskimo name), the Calgary Stampeders (Ralph the Dog), and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers mascots don't quite have any connection to their team name.

hawk36 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Not as much a mascot as just their identity, but a Space Needle for a Sounder? You'd think there would at least be a water element for the Puget Sound. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmm Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 New York Yankees (snoopy, not sure if still in use)Wait, what? Snoopy is only there when they have MetLife sponsoring a giveaway or one of their player of the month awards. The only mascot that they've had was Dandy. But they killed him because mascots are awesome and that team hates fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agentrygraphics Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Indiana State University Sycamores: Their Primary mascot is "Sycamore Sam"...which is an animal of combined origins (features of his appearance are made up of local prevalent wildlife).

For example, the 1973 version was quite frightening to a young child......and the Friday the 13th Jason version from the mid 00s was also creepy...

kiwi_canadian Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Well in the WHL the Victoria Royals have Marty the Marmot who was signed as a free agent from the Victoria Salmon Kings from the ECHL when that team folded to make way for the Royals.With the Royals:With the Salmon Kings:Here's the link to the video of his contract offer:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aaFygpKJM_k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
